Real Estate

Rapid urbanisation and globalisation, demographic shifts and changing markets dynamics, climate change effects and regulation, as well as technological and social innovation are transforming the real estate industry, creating enormous challenges for developers, investors and other stakeholders. In particular, there is growing pressure on the industry to reduce its environmental impact and to collaborate with municipalities, planners, and citizens in creating smart, liveable and sustainable cities. Moreover, as investors are putting more emphasis on the ESG performance of real estate portfolios (e.g. GRESB, WELL, …) and looking for long-term cost reduction and value creation, there is an increasing need for sustainability and engagement strategies as well as the optimisation and monitoring of portfolios.

What we offer

Incorporating our holistic sustainability perspective into real estate operations and urban development processes ensures that long-term value is created and that all relevant topics and stakeholders are integrated.

Sustainable sourcing in terms of availability and risks is an additional must and goes beyond the merely cost-oriented decisions of the past. A multi-criterial approach is necessary, taking into account additional aspects like environmental and social impact, human rights, corruption or critical materials as well as questions of sustainable transport.
